Maybe you could get in touch with ODUBLEEDBLUE, He dedicated a lot of time and effort to his Blog just a year or so ago. It was ultimately too much for him considering he was also working a full time job and raising two young kids. He is a GREAT guy and had a fantastic vision and did outstanding interviews (Players, Coaches, Broderick, Wood Selig and other Bloggers from CUSA Schools. He loved Basketball and always had many other topics of interest and game recaps. His Basketball reports were always top notch as he shared his insight into Basketball and recruiting.
You might think about reaching out to Evan at 247Sport. He was looking for an inside man at ODU for Coach contacts and maybe even assistance for his pay site. If it works out maybe he can help with press credentials or give you a lead for the right people to contact for that opportunity. At one time he was looking for someone to supplement the ODU page at 247. I'm sure if you reach out to these guys they will give you some tips. It may ultimately help you and possibly Evan (247) at the same time.
AGGIE would be a good contact person and ETSUDB8-79 as well. I'm sure there are others but AGGIE and ETSU both stay in contact with a lot of what happens in football. AGGIE has done some reports in the past in regards to Practices, Spring games, Scrimmages and his analogies, reports are ALWAYS fantastic. There are many more on the boards that are very passionate about ODU and their desire to see us succeed in the future.
I could list 10 more people on the boards that I'm sure if they have the time they will help anyway they can. As always it comes down to juggling life, loved ones, priorities with the short time we have available for our love of ODU Sports. (Not trying to single out anyone, just felt this may help)
Good Luck with the Blog, look forward to supporting your endeavor in anyway we can, (I include My Uncle, Thank God for him). Nine more days and counting.
